Singapore is one of the most expensive cities to live in.
However, there are also places where you can find something that doesn’t cost
much… to enjoy or making a big hole in your pockets. Here are some of the
places I usually like to go to during weekend.
These common places I usually hang around are the libraries.
The reason why I like visiting libraries is because there are many terrific activities going on in the
library. We can acquire new information of knowledge or experience new
technologies that were presented to us by industries or expert. We can also
search plenty of interesting books that were donated by charitable donor. Their selfless
act not only offered generous donation but also equipping public with many
sponsor programme to enhance our mental and physical performance.
Another good place to get close to the nature over the
weekend is by taking a walk in the park. Our parks were enveloped and filled with flora and fauna. Some of the parks are
specially designed to keep kids engaging in physical activities. The outdoor
activity helps them to develop their strength and keeps them fit and healthy.
Other inexpensive activities such as swimming, cycling, kite
flying, having picnics can help family bonding and allow children to build up
their social and interactive skills with friends. They can also visit the
museums and zoos to learn more about history and animals respectively. The museums have a few vestige collection that was left after World War II which is good
for student or kids to understand history of what their forefather had went
through during the Japanese occupation so they will savour what they have now
in a peaceful time.
Besides, government occasionally will also organise activities
to promote health awareness to the public in order to encourage citizens to
implement good health habits in their daily life. Many benevolent organisations
will provide sponsorship for the events as well. Hence, it is a good place
where you can receive dozen of health advice and free gifts. There were many
volunteers conducted free First-Aid
and CPR training to the public thus you can pick up valuable life-saving skills
along the way.
There are also many entertainments attraction during the
nights for locals or tourists who are here for holiday. Some amazing places
like casino at Sentosa Island where you can also see our iconic Merlion statues
which spray water in certain fixed time of the nights. At Sentosa Island there
are many exciting activities like underwater world, 3D museum, cable car,
universal studio, dolphin islands, and etc.
This is just a short introduction of the typical Singaporean
who likes spending quality time doing free things. In future, I will share with
you other interesting things about Singapore and its custom. Btw, I will also
attach some of the photo taken in Singapore and Asian like Taiwan and Hong Kong
for you to view. Hope you will enjoys!
